JAKARTA - Britain insists it will not support Israel's massive attacks on the Rafah, but does not truly condemn Israel's aggression in the southern region of Gaza City. This was stated by British Foreign Minister David Cameron on Thursday, May 9.

"We will not support a massive operation in Rafah unless there are clear plans on how to protect the public," Cameron said after his speech at the National Cybersecurity Center in London, reported by ANTARA, Thursday, May 9.

Cameron said his party had not seen any such plans.

But at the same time, Britain's Foreign Minister said Britain would not follow the US to contain arms sales to Israel.

This came after US President Joe Biden warned Tel Aviv that his government would stop supplying bombs and artillery shells if its military continued to launch attacks on Rafah.

"I emphasize that if they enter Rafah they haven't gone to Rafah if they go into Rafah, I won't supply weapons that have been used historically to confront Rafah, to confront the cities facing the problem," Biden told CNN media.

At least 34,904 people, including more than 14,500 children, have died in Gaza since the start of the genocide war of the Israeli regime in Gaza last October.

Despite occasionally giving warnings about the humanitarian disasters that occur in surrounded areas, Western countries firmly support the war by supplying large numbers of weapons.
